That closing song just gets me every time

Maybe you know Josh, maybe you don't. In any case - he made me listen to 40 minutes of a made-up story about an anthropomorphized McDonalds Filet-O-Fish sandwich saving a marriage. And I didn't regret it. I gleefully tuned in to part II after he baited me with a cliffhanger at the end of part I. If that's not the most glowing review a podcast could receive, I don't know what is.

Hilarious

I'm a late comer to podcasts and this is the first one I've listened to. I started at episode one and I'm current as of June 1st. My favorites are your interviews and understandings of politics. Looking forward to more with Murray and your Dad because I think they are fascinating :-) also thanks for figuring out the audio control; because I only listen while I'm in the car.
